Rawhide updated to ghc-9.8
by Jens-Ulrik Petersen 16 Apr '25

16 Apr '25

I am happy to announce that Rawhide Haskell was updated to GHC 9.8 over the last week (published to repos on Monday). https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Changes/Haskell_GHC_9.8_and_Stackage_23 Unfortunately this didn't land in time for F42, and so most likely won't be backported. I am not aware of any particular problems, but do report if you see something. There are 3 packages to retire soon, though they already have obsoletes. Cheers, Jens

Just a heads-up that I have submitted https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Changes/Haskell_GHC_9.8_and_Stackage_23 for Fedora 42 (ahead of tomorrow's submission deadline). Let me know if you have any questions or feedback. Thanks, Jens

Thank you, Ben Latest Stackage Nightly <https://www.stackage.org/nightly-2024-12-05> is now on 9.8.4. I also updated Fedora ghc9.8 <https://src.fedoraproject.org/rpms/ghc9.8> and it is available already in updates-testing repos, including epel9-testing. Jens

help with 2 Haskell package reviews
by Jens-Ulrik Petersen 30 Oct '24

30 Oct '24

Hi, I would like to ask for help with a couple of packages reviews: NEW ghc-select-rpms: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2309209 NEW ghc-fedora-releases: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2322700 They are both needed by fbrnch and the next releases of koji-tool and fedora-repoquery respectively. The reviews should be straightforward , following Fedora Haskell policy - they are generated by cabal-rpm (eg cabal-rpm diff should show any tweaks). Thank you, Jens

update on GHC 9.6 & LTS 22 change
by Jens-Ulrik Petersen 07 Aug '24

07 Aug '24

Hi, A late update on the GHC 9.6 & Stackage LTS 22 Change <https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Changes/Haskell_GHC_9.6_and_Stackage_22> for F41. Most of the work (building) is now complete in a rawhide sidetag, which I hope to merge later today. Mostly due to mtl-2.3 the following packages fail and will all likely be retired: ghc-ConfigFile ghc-HSH ghc-MonadCatchIO-mtl ghc-MonadCatchIO-transformers ghc-cprng-aes ghc-crypto-random ghc-highlighting-kate ghc-language-ecmascript ghc-libxml-sax ghc-monad-journal ghc-pattern-arrows ghc-regexpr I still need to fix: rhbzquery Also planning to retire these deprecated packages: ghc-connection ghc-cryptohash ghc-x509 ghc-x509-store ghc-x509-system ghc-x509-validation which are obsoleted by the new ghc-crypton-*. Otherwise the building went pretty smoothly this time. Jens

adopting @haskell-lang-sig
by Jens-Ulrik Petersen 06 Jan '24

06 Jan '24

Hi, We have discussed this in the past and the latest unwanted package-retirement is now the last straw for me, so I want to go ahead with adding @haskell-lang-sig group to all Haskell ghc-* library packages at least. See https://pagure.io/fedora-infrastructure/issue/10891 and https://pagure.io/fesco/issue/3143 Happy New Year, Jens

ghc-9.6 for F40
by Jens-Ulrik Petersen 17 Dec '23

17 Dec '23

Hi, I prepared https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Changes/Haskell_GHC_9.6_and_Stackage_22 to update rawhide to ghc-9.6, now that LTS 22 was just released. Let me know if you have any questions, suggestions or ideas for improving the overall process. Cheers, Jens

ghc 9.4 Change for Fedora 39
by Jens-Ulrik Petersen 14 Aug '23

14 Aug '23

Hi, I prepared a Self-Contained Change: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Changes/Haskell_GHC_9.4_and_Stackage_21 The timeline is quite tight but I think it is still possible to land after the mass rebuild and before the Change Checkpoint: Completion deadline testable (August 8), also overlapping with Flock. Let me know if you have any thoughts or concerns. Not planning any large packaging changes this time around, except moving some executable packages also to rpmautospec. Jens

Re: disabling Haskell i686 packages

Thanks, Florian, very good point.

Then I guess it will have to wait then. It is not that big a deal yet: though a few i686 issues are slowly starting to creep in for a few Haskell packages. Jens

disabling Haskell i686 packages
by Jens-Ulrik Petersen 18 May '23

18 May '23

We have been building i386 packages for ghc and Haskell for a long time, but I think it is time to stop for Fedora 39. So as part of F39 Haskell updates, I plan to disable 32bit ix86 builds across all the packages: I doubt anyone is still using them anyway. Jens
